#clean cooking

As Africa advances its energy transition, young people are becoming vital in driving innovation and entrepreneurship, particularly in clean cooking solutions. The Africa Energy Forum (AEF) emphasizes the need for the continent's youth to actively participate in developing energy solutions, highlighting their potential role in community transformation.

Experts have called on the Federal Government to enhance the implementation of clean cooking policies and increase investment in electric cooking. They warn that millions of households continue to depend on polluting fuels, which pose risks to public health, contribute to climate change, and worsen poverty.

According to Punch, an adviser to Lagos Governor Sanwo-Olu has emphasized that Nigeria's clean cooking initiative has the potential to enhance economic growth, generate employment opportunities, and improve public health. The initiative aims to promote cleaner cooking methods across the country.
